Letter from Montana Territory.

To THE EDITOR OF THE JOURNAL: | noticed a
letter in your valuable paper of May 5th from the
pen Of l. c. Libby and think his IDEAS on raising
horses are good ones for the Maine farmers to
practice. 1t is we'll known fact that good draft
horse will bring good price in any market. be
nevc, too, with Mr. Libby that the farmers make Il
mistake in not raising more Clydcs,alc and Per
chcrons, for they are the kings of draft horses
They are of gentle dispositions and easy to
handle. Horse raising is one of the leading
branches of the stock business in this country and
the Clydesdales and Percherons take the lead.
Mrs. Thomas Curney and Miss Cora Smart recent
ly had narrow escape from what might have
been serious accident. While out riding their
horses became frightened and in passing a steep
cmbankment the carriage was overturned, and but
for the timely assistance of some men who ha u.
pencd near the accident must have proved quite
serious As it was no damage was done aside
from giving the ladies quite a scare.
Among the many things in the wild west that
interest the new conner is the way the caytlse
sometimes jumps around when there is Pilgrim
on his back. Not long since at one of the neighbor
ing sheep ranches an incident of this Kind occur
red which caused no little fun Mt the expense of
the rider. 1t seems that George Davis Ca new
comcr) was told to take one Of the saddle horses
and go to the sheep camp on some errand. Instead
of putting the saddle ON the horse he thought
bareback was good enough for him, but not so
with the horse, for he proved to the bystanders
that it was an easy matter to lay George on the
ground. And now George says that one of Coop
er's buggics is good enough for him, and as
he sees a squaw he is ready to go home

Letter from Portland.
Correspondence of the journal. |


My last letter has stirred up considerable
discussion, and brought 10 your columns a
denial from Hon. Fred N. Dow This causes
us to say that we wrote naught in malice. A
newspaper correspondent writes the gossip of
the hour and is apt sometimes to he mistaken.
Col. Dow says he is not candidate for Cover
nor. neither is he an owner Of the majority of
the stock of the Evening Express. We have
heard his name mentioned in connection with
the Office of Governor before and since We
wrote that communication. Ills denial sets
the matter at rest. If earnest work and de-
voton to the Republican party issl merit. then
is Col. Dow justly entitled to 4 nomination for
Governor il he should change his mind and
become Il candidate.
AS to the Express. all our people who
trouble themselves about the matter have be-
licved Mr.. Dow to be its responsible owner.
1t seems by his statement that he is not. One
thing is certain, it is no dscredit to him to be
the owner, for it is a live, prosperous paper
that represents what the mugwumps call the
machine Republicans. 1t has come to stay,
and is destined to he the leading party paper
here.
Portland has able daies. The old Ar
gus is one of the substantial papers in
Maine. Col. Adams. its veteran editor. is an
able man and rcaps a large income from it. 1t
has fine corps of editors and reporters, and
is patronized by men opposed to it in politics.
The Press was never so well managed as now.
1t is one of the best ,lailic> in our State. Its
management are putting more money into its
locals than ever before and it is paving them
we'll. The Advertiser is the ableSt edited pa
per in Maine. Mr.. Richardson has no peer AS
a writer in our State and no superior in New
England. His paper is pro>pering, and we are
pleased to hear that he is rcapiny the reward
due a hard working journalist who early and
late for twenty years has tried to please the
public.
Our hope is that no blood will be split on
account of what we write, although Col.
Dow's allnsion to the Daily Press SavorS of a
malignant stab that may he resented.
Hon. Clark ii. Barker is to remove to Kan
>as City and become connected with W. Z.
Rice in the bankin" business. Mr.. Barker is a
frank, outSpokcn. fearless man. a true friend,
and square enemy. Our hope is that he will
succeed i'm his new home. OCCASION
